My experience with doctors--my father was one--is that doctors give themselves LESS TREATMENT than they give their patients. They know it's not worth it. They invoke the truth, "Don't do something. Just stand there." My father never got a colonoscopy--said it was not worth his time--and lived until 92 . . . and he didn't die of cancer

Totally agree. I also believe that doctors give themselves (and their families) LESS treatment because they have a lot of experience with the real-world safety and effectiveness of various treatments. They are not obligated to follow the industry-created "standard of care" for themselves.
